he appeared in vaudeville with his parents and with his twin brother
appeared as a child in a series of 16 semi- documentary short films directed by their father, The Adventures of Bob and Bill. As Bob Bradbury Jr., he played juvenile roles in silent films, then took the stage name Bob Steele in 1927. He appeared in scores of films during the Thirties, rising to B-Western stardom and an apparently solid position as one of Republic Studios' top draws. Occasionally he made an appearance in more prominent films, as in his role as Curly in
Of Mice and MEN(1939). But he remained primarily a figure in Westerns. His stardom diminished by the mid-40s, and he spent the next quarter-century in character roles, some highly visible, such as his part in The Big sleep
(1946).
He appeared often on television and regained some fame in his role as Trooper Duffy in
F
Troop
(1965). He died at St. Joseph's Hospital in Burbank, California.
